Re: Mole Hunter <aka Game>

It took me a while to figure out that I wasn't supposed to click with the pointy bit. Fun though!

Small bug: when I got > 1000 points, the score stopped displaying until the game was over.

Re: RoboLOVE

I represented the player with a rectangular physical body, and applied forces to it according to the player's on-screen position relative to the mouse. I let the physics engine sort out collisions for me. It doesn't work very well though, because the player gets stuck on everything for some reason :...

RoboLOVE
